Donkey Kong Bananza introduces innovative gameplay through terrain deformation and character transformations, offering an evolved 3D platforming experience. The setting consists of progressively layered biomes, each designed as standalone stages, reminiscent of classic N64 platforming. Players navigate through diverse environments, uncovering secrets as they dig deeper into the planet. The narrative centers on DK and Pauline's quest for wish-granting power, with each large hub revealing new mechanics and challenges. The game maintains the joy of exploration found in earlier platformers while incorporating modern elements for an engaging experience.
The story revolves around burrowing deeper into the planet's core as DK and his companion Pauline search for the power to make a wish.
Stages are built around deformable terrain that DK can shape by punching his way forward, downward, or upward, digging through solid rock to uncover secrets.
Donkey Kong Bananza looks like it is carrying forward this design philosophy with new layers, in a very literal sense.
Each environment is packed with secrets to uncover and elements to explore, and then you burrow deeper into the world's crust and start familiarizing yourself with the next.
